I mean, some of my posts here have been, um, "less than literature". :-)

27. how did you guess?
My plan failed miserably when, in her backyard one day, she was showing me how to play and i asked her if she had a left-handed stick. She said "no such thing."

Makes perfect sense to me! The damned play surface on the stick is only on one side!

Sigh.

23. ate food out of his mouth...
He did the "Do you like seafood?", and when I replied yes, he showed me the food in his mouth (how immature). So I then grabbed the food and ate it.

It worked for that night.

Oh, BTW, that was like 15 years ago and I was a teenager.

39. I was hoping, to be perfectly candid, that my return from the dead
would inspire an epidemic of cooing while gently forehead (mine) dabbing and pressing-head (mine)-to-bosom among DU's women.

Instead, I just found a pile of bills waiting for me. :-)

40. Dave Foley, Kids in the Hall.

"I once shot a man, just to watch him die. Then, I got distracted, and I missed it."


EDIT: I realize what the reference is, it just made me think of the Kids in the Hall line...

35. jumped off the roof of a two story building...
with an umbrella to "break my fall" (ala Mary Poppins).
I was 8, he was 10. I thought I I broke my collar bone. I immediately swore off older men.

42. I played "The Santa Rap" from Beat Street on my tape recorder
to impress two boys, forgetting that I was nine and they were fourteen and way too cool to think that was an interesting thing. I was really embarrassed.

49. I pretended I knew how to smoke.
I was at a keg party when I was in college, trying to think of a way to impress a really cute guy. Finally, I bummed a cigarette from my friend and went up to him, lighting my cigarette. Little did I know I had lit the filter. I didn't notice anything wrong until he said "What's that smell"? (He wasn't impressed).

46. Went body-surfing in really huge surf to show my manliness
Then the wave dropped me ten feet straight down on bare sand, and I barely got my elbows out before I hit the ground, only to be buried by the wave and churned and ground against the bottom. It felt like I came close to knocking both shoulders out of joint.

I crawled out of that ocean and didn't go back for the rest of the day.
